Abstract

In this note, we correct a wrong result in a paper of Das et al. with regard to the comparison between the Wiener index and the Zagreb indices for trees (Das K C, Jeon H, Trinajstić N. The comparison between the Wiener index and the Zagreb indices and the eccentric connectivity index for trees. Discrete Appl. Math., 2014, 171: 35–41), and give a simple way to compare the Wiener index and the Zagreb indices for trees. Moreover, the comparison between the Wiener index and the Zagreb indices for unicyclic graphs is carried out.
